These local tycoons secretly thought: You Qincha will find a way to solve it yourself? Most of the time this solution is still trying to be on our heads. You must know that the Ming Dynasty dealt with the Tongwa very strictly, and Wang Cuiqiao's family was broken overnight because he was framed as a Tongwa. And Yan Hong's means, regardless of his identity and status, are ten times stronger than the Li Wenzao brothers back then? If he really wants to target someone and fabricate evidence, what is the difficulty? In addition, Geng Shaoquan is in his hands again, under Sanmu, why worry about not recruiting, when the time comes, he will let Geng Shaoquan bite whoever Geng Shaoquan bites, so who can be good?

And these businessmen and rich people say that they have a nest of snakes and rats, who can be clean, and they have never done business with Geng Shaoquan at all? At the beginning, everyone was greedy for cheap and bought private goods, but now as long as they say it, they will become a common widow, and at that time, it is not how much family property is lost, but how much there is left in their own family. After thinking about it like this, I am afraid that today's level has to be sacrificed to avoid disasters.

Therefore, everyone had to admit bad luck, obediently pay for peace, and pay for donation. After a banquet, he actually raised 20,000 taels of silver. Yan Hong was satisfied, and the next day he allocated a part of the money and distributed it to the guards of the guards, Zhejiang soldiers and Jinyi guards who participated in the war and quelled the chaos, as a reward according to the level of merit. As for the sons who went to Xinhe, the silver was collected by other people, and they were all villagers, so there would be no accidents.

Originally, these local soldiers and horses were still worried about the small number of soldiers in the city, and they were a little worried, but now they didn't see the Geng family attacking the city, and they didn't see the traces of the real widows, so they settled down a little bit in their hearts, and each of them shared a sum of silver, and the army's heart gradually settled down. There are even those brocade guards who boast in the team, saying that this money is nothing, and they want to be in Jinan. Hundreds of thousands of silver from the patriarch were scattered. The brow does not frown. There is nothing else to follow the self-patriarch, just money! The other brocade clothes were excited, and they just hoped that they could mingle with this God of Wealth for a few more days and give more rewards.

Not long after the matter here was dealt with, someone suddenly came to report, and someone on the door asked to see him, and it was said that he came from Geng's village outside the city. As soon as he heard the three words Geng Jiazhai, he frowned and said, "Sir." Need to be more cautious, the thief's family comes, I don't know what intentions? ”

Yan Hong smiled: "It's okay. Two days ago, I asked someone to transcribe a copy of Geng Thief's confession and send it to the Geng family patriarch. "The sin on that confession is collusion with the Japanese Kou, which belongs to Geng Shaoquan's evil alone, and the involvement with the Geng clan is not too big, even if it is a mutiny. It will not necessarily implicate the entire Geng clan.

Yan Hong's hand also understands what he said. Now Geng Shaoquan is in my hands, and at present, under the premise that I will not be punished. He also confessed to colluding with the Japanese and the Japanese to kill their heads. If he was to be tortured by himself, would it be difficult for him to confess that he had colluded with Bailian and deliberately rebelled? At that time, the Geng clan still wanted to stay out of the matter?

This is a test to see how the Geng family reacts. If the people of the Geng family are the same as Geng Shaoquan, they are short-sighted and brave and ruthless people, most of them will make a desperate bet and gather the clansmen to attack the city. If that's the case, Yan Hong still has a backbone force of more than 200 people in his hands, relying on the city wall and firearms, he can also fight with this gang, so as to lure the snake out of the hole, and also take the initiative by himself.

Moreover, what the Geng family can fight has been cut down in Taizhou, and even if the rest of the people fight to the death, how much combat power can they have? According to the report of the local Jinyiwei, the Geng family, as a local wealthy family, is not in harmony with the surrounding families. Over the years, they have grabbed water and land, forcibly moved boundary monuments, and seized a lot of surrounding land, which is extremely strong. The people in the surrounding villages, if they want to say that they can't beat the Geng family, most of them swallow their anger and retreat. And now, the Geng family lacks Geng Shaoquan's core combat power, and its strength has been greatly damaged, and it is difficult to say whether it will win or lose if there is another weapon fight. Not to mention that if the Geng family dares to rebel, it will be more convenient for those families to collude with the government in the name of rebellion. The people of Gengjiazhai really dare to be so arrogant, they rely on the two hundred regular troops inside, and there are several strong men from several major families outside, come to a center for a meeting, surrounded on all sides, hehe, to Gengjiazhai to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, what is the difficulty?

And if the Geng family has a little brain, they should naturally send someone to negotiate with themselves, and everyone will talk about the deal and fight with their mouths, so it's good.

Therefore, when Yan Hong heard that someone from Geng's village was coming, he smiled slightly, after all, they were not stupid yet. At that moment, he commanded: "Bring someone here, and the official will meet him." He leaned on the Taishi chair, and beside him were Tao Zhi, Shao An, Jiang An, and Le Jin.

Not long after, a servant in a green coat and a small hat walked in from outside, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed at the door when he entered: "The villain Geng Fu has seen the old man Qincha." ”

Yan Hong said: "This official is busy with official business, and there is nothing polite, what do you have to say when you come to see me?" ”

The man said: "The villain belongs to the Geng family, and now there is the patriarch of my Geng family, who repairs the next letter and specially approves the villain to present it to the boss." As he spoke, he held a letter high above his head.

Tao Zhi stepped forward to take the letter, turned around and handed it to Yan Hong. Yan Hong unfolded the letter, only to see that what was said in it was exactly what he expected. The content of the letter of the Geng family patriarch is very humble and the tone is very humble. First of all, he repeatedly clarified that Geng Shaoquan's matter had nothing to do with the Geng family Manchus, and said that Geng Jiazhai and Huang An Geng were originally of the same clan as Geng Fuzi. At the end of the day, it was written that a banquet would be set up at home one day later, and Qin would be invited to come to the house for a banquet and make amends in person.

Yan Hong nodded after seeing it and said: "I know about this matter, you go back to report to your owner, and say that I will definitely go in two days and ask him to prepare the banquet." If it's not to my liking, don't blame me for turning my face. ”

When he sent people away, Jiang An said: "Sir, now our capital is too small, and Geng's family is full of Geng clansmen. ”

Yan Hong smiled: "Brother Jiang, thank you for your kindness." But you also think about it, in the past two days, why didn't we see people from the villages around the Geng family complaining? It is said that Geng Shaoquan fell, they should have beaten the water dog, came to the door to complain, and asked for the land to return, why didn't they see anyone? Obviously, these people are also waiting for me to go, and then make it clear to my face. Don't worry, those strong men in Zhuang Village are my reliance, not to mention that there are Qi Laohu outside. As long as his army is undefeated, this man will not dare to touch me. Two days later, let our people also dress up as Zhejiang soldiers, and I will take everyone to eat and drink well. ”

Inside Geng's village.

Geng Dunru, the contemporary patriarch of the Geng family, is sixty years old this year, and he is also an old and refined figure. When Geng Shaoquan was strong, he didn't take him seriously. He didn't care either, he just pretended to be deaf and dumb, and be a good gentleman, anyway, the benefits of Geng Shaoquan bringing people down were also indispensable to him. Later, his little daughter-in-law and Geng Shaoquan were a little unclear, and he only didn't know what to do, but on the contrary, he suppressed the little son who was going to work hard, so as not to let him speak out, so as not to ruin his life in vain.

Now Geng Shaoquan is unlucky, he went crazy to mutiny and assassinate, but he was defeated, the people and horses were almost killed and injured, and several fox friends and dog friends were all taken and killed. Geng Shaoquan has no power in the clan, so it is his turn to be the patriarch of Geng. This kind of black sheep, how can it not be punished heavily, and the emperor will be reported to the emperor and the ancestors and ancestors? So, the patriarch first mobilized the young and strong people in the clan, and took all the dozen or so descendants who escaped from Geng Shaoquan's army, just waiting to be handed over to Qin Cha for meritorious service. He also ordered people to arrest all Geng Shaoquan's family members, and even soaked his daughter-in-law's shameless slut in the pig cage, so as not to be embarrassed. His youngest son was originally bent on revenge on Geng Shaoquan's little daughter-in-law, but he was also beaten out of the country with a crutch. Geng Shaoquan's concubines are with you, and this mother-in-law can also be moved? Hurry up and find out the news!

Several big families in the Geng family, as well as some elderly people in the village, are now surrounding him to ask for a charter. Geng Dunru sneered secretly: When Geng Shaoquan was born, you were in a hurry one by one, how do you know that Lu Dao is scared now? This time, I have to let you know who is your backbone!

He stood up more and more, and said unhurriedly: "What's the hurry? People are old, their ears are not good, and I can't hear you clearly, can you? If this noise can get things done, then I'll go, and you guys can just make a slow noise here. ”

A junior of the Geng family hurriedly put on a smile and said, "Uncle, your old man is old and strong, how can you say that you are old?" Aren't we scared now? You said that Da Lang made such a fuss, not only put himself in, but also implicated us. I've heard that people from several nearby villages are clamoring for revenge and trouble for us these days. Some people want to go to the city to take care of the government, and some people propose to spend money to hire swordsmen outside, I am afraid that once the fight starts, our family will suffer a big loss. ”

"Humph! Fighting? You really look up to yourself, do you think you can live until someone calls? Geng Shaoquan committed the crime of raiding the house and destroying the door, if Qin Cha is determined to clean up us, as long as he is tortured, Geng Dalang admits that he is the White Lotus Sect, and then we will wait for the clan to be wiped out! Do you think that the broken village wall outside can stop the officers and soldiers? The old man heard that those Zhejiang soldiers are all gods in the lower realm, and killing us, a farmer, is like chopping melons and vegetables. Let me tell you, this is also the old man's prestige on weekdays, Qin sent us a face, and sent the confession first, this is waiting for us to express his position. Now I have only one charter, spend money to buy peace, and use money to buy life. If you nod, let's do so, if you don't nod, then the old man will go back to the room and hang himself, and you will fight to the death with Qincha. ”

When those people heard about it, they also knew that beating them was looking for death. Not to mention fighting officers and soldiers, the people in the surrounding villages may not be able to win the battle now. Therefore, they all said: "What your old man said is that we listen to you." How much will it cost this time? (To be continued......)
